I've been successful at making my own chainsaw brake band, works well. Used titanium, should last much longer. I also used the same rod that the band is attached to with new rivets, so everything fit exactly the same, just had to shape the band and cut it to the correct length, cut the slots and drilled holes where needed. Reason I did this, I was told the brake band was no longer available.
